Morlaye Sylla: Abha eye move for Guinea midfielder from Damac FC

Guinea central midfielder Morlaye Sylla is being linked with a move from Saudi Pro League side Damac FC to Abha in the Saudi First Division League.

The 27-year-old, born in Conakry and currently valued at €1.80m, is the subject of fresh speculation over his future, with Abha exploring the possibility of bringing him in as they rebuild outside the top flight. Transfer data lists no fixed contract expiry date at Damac, fuelling suggestions he could yet move on relatively freely if an agreement is reached, though the precise probability of a deal remains unclear and is officially rated as “?”.

Sylla, who stands at 1.70m and operates primarily as a central midfielder, has been on the books of Damac FC in Saudi Arabia, wearing shirt number 2 and featuring as a right-footed organiser in the middle of the pitch. His current market value of €1.80m is seen as a realistic benchmark for any negotiations should Damac demand a fee rather than risk losing him in a future window when he could become a free agent.

No formal offer has been confirmed, but Abha’s interest comes against the backdrop of the club’s attempts to strengthen their spine following relegation to the Saudi First Division League. Recent match data for Sylla at Damac has not been publicly detailed in the latest records, leaving his exact appearance and goal figures for the current campaign undisclosed.

With his prime years ahead of him and experience in Saudi Arabia already on his CV, a switch to Abha would represent a step into a promotion-chasing project where he could become a central figure – a move that may yet define the next phase of his career if the rumoured transfer comes to fruition.
